Design Story
Custom cabinetry gathers storage and display into a continuous timber backdrop around the central dining table.
Curved chairs, a compact bench, and restrained objects introduce an Oriental sense of balance while keeping the room practical for daily gatherings.
Branches and Smoked Glass Hold the Center
A matte white vessel of bare branches and a faceted smoked-glass object form a balanced centerpiece against the illuminated cabinet niche. Their contrasting transparency gives the restrained timber room a precise focal point.
A Dark Oval Table Floats among Pale Chairs
The dark tabletop sits above a light sculptural pedestal and four timber-framed chairs, creating a clear central contrast. Soft tied cushions temper the angular joinery and make the dining group feel inviting.
Open Shelving Turns the Kitchen Corner
A rounded timber-and-metal shelving unit pivots the cabinetry into the open room without forming a solid end wall. Its sparse shelves maintain transparency between dining, sink and circulation.
A Live-Edge Bench Draws the Textured Wall
The long timber bench follows the pale plaster wall as one warm, irregular line. Its natural edge and block supports introduce craft and grain to an otherwise minimal passage.
Tied Cushions Soften the Timber Chair
The dining chair pairs a sturdy pale timber frame with loose grey and white cushions secured by visible ties. That relaxed textile detail prevents the geometric furniture from feeling severe and adds a tailored, residential finish.
